Bert noticed an apparent problem with the OIDs.

bottom of page 4 (example 1):
        30 11
        06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 01 05          ; AES-128 wrap OID
page 5 (example 2):
      30 11
        06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 01 2c            ; AES-256 wrap OID
top of page 6:
      30 11
        06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 01 2c            ; AES-256 wrap OID

And in section 2.3.2 (page 6):

  NIST has assigned the following OIDs to define the AES key wrap
  algorithm.

        id-aes128-wrap OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { aes 5 }
        id-aes192-wrap OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { aes 25 }
        id-aes256-wrap OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { aes 45 }

From that, it seems to me that
        06 09 60 86 48 01 65 03 04 01 2c            ; AES-256 wrap OID
is not in sync with
        id-aes256-wrap OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { aes 45 }
Because I think that the 2c at the end should be 2d in order to
represent the last subid of 45
